Introduction
This
is a webquest designed for students
to learn the concepts of complimentary and
supplementary angles. This webquest
allows students to use the internet to
practice and learn the concept of
complimentary and supplementary angles.
 Grade
Learners
9 - Geometry or Interactive Math Program
(IMP) Level 1 or 2
 Learners should know what a right angle looks like,
and the symbol that represents a right angle
 Learners should also know that a straight line
forms a 180˚ angle
 When teaching this lesson an easy way for
students to remember the definitions is that ‘c’
comes before ‘s’ in the alphabet, and 90 comes
before 180, therefore complementary angles add
up to 90˚ and supplementary angles add up to 180˚

Students may run into problems applying
the definition to word problems or other
applications of the concepts
Therefore
teachers must be prepared to give
the students many practice problems

This WebQuest allows students to discover the new information
and concepts on their own by using the internet
It is very important that students know the definition of
complementary and supplementary angles, and it will help them
to remember these definitions by discovering the information
on their own, rather than having a teacher tell them the
definitions and say you have to memorize these.
Once the students discover the new concepts, they will then
have a chance to apply the new concepts, and if they have any
questions they have the chance to ask them during the class
time
It is important that students get a good grasp on these
concepts for the next lesson, which would be on angles of
parallel lines

Introduction

You will be visiting two specific websites to discover the
concepts of complementary and supplementary angles.
The first website is a short movie explaining the
definitions, and showing you examples of both types of
angles. The second website will allow you to practice
viewing angles and allows you to complete some problems
right on the internet. Once you have a good grasp on the
new concepts, you will complete some in-class examples
applying these two concepts, and you will then complete a
worksheet for homework giving you more practice with the
concepts.
Task
Student
Discovery Handout
Process
 Students
must first visit the two websites, read the
information, and try some of the internet examples
 Students must fill out the Student Discovery Handout as
they are learning the material online
 Once the students feel they have a good grasp on the
material, they will complete the in-class examples
 Students will then complete a worksheet for homework
giving them more practice
Conclusion
To
conclude this lesson the teacher will go
over your homework sheet the following
day, and if there is still some confusion,
there will be a few more in class examples
to clear up the problems. Throughout the
next few lessons, until there is a quiz on
this topic, you will have at least one or two
complimentary and supplementary angle
problems on homework assignments.
